For Model viii, the sample was restricted to the first advert each participant saw. Model ix includes only participants who could imagine working in the restaurant industry. For Model x and xi, the outcome variable was respecified as described in Table 1. Regressions are linear probability models. Descriptions of all variables are provided in Table 1. Reported standard errors (in parentheses) are corrected for clustering of the observations at the participant level.
